Lucid Absinthe is the first genuine absinthe made with real Grande Wormwood to be legally available in the United States after a 95 year ban. Lucid was developed in France by renowned absinthe historian and distiller T.A. Breaux. Lucid is distilled in the historical Combier Distillery in Saumur, in France's Loire Valley. It is created using original antique copper absinthe stills, many of which were designed by Gustav Eiffel in the 1800s. Characterized by upfront flavors of anise and fennel, followed by mild mid-palate earthy textures attributable to the absinthe (Artemisia absinthium). The herbs round out the flavor with additional spice and grassy notes, which linger in a moderately long finish.
